Rocco throwing out mental illness accusations
As an xbot I applaud your tireless effort in trying to convince people to game on a PC powered by Microsoft.

Re: Scorpio / Xbox One X
My below mental health public service announcement needs a re-post for the new thread page....
Jasper wrote:NOBODY CARES for the simple fact that EVERY SINGLE MOTHER FUCKING MUST HAVE Xbox One X game will be available on PC with SUPERIOR graphics, SUPERIOR resolution, SUPERIOR frame-rate, SUPERIOR (and free unlike XBL) online experience...and all at a CHEAPER price as PC games are more affordable than console games!
As previously stated, there's something truly mentally wrong with you - if you intend to purchase an Xbox One X knowing you are paying MORE MONEY for an INFERIOR gaming experience, when you can instead spend LESS MONEY for a SUPERIOR gaming experience on PC!
If you still don't get what i'm saying..skip the XB1X, skip upgrading your PC...and use your money to GO SEE A FUCKING PSYCHIATRIST YOU SICK IN THE HEAD MENTALLY ILL RETARDS!!!

Re: Scorpio / Xbox One X
Jasper PC gaming is not "less" money, You save on the software side but the hardware is substantially more. No way in hell can you build an equivalent 6TF PC for $650. My current video card alone costs double that.
This is why consoles are still viable for an average gaming consumer that just wants to play the latest COD/Halo/Forza/BF/Ubisoft game a few times a year.
You know what's insanity, forcing your customers to play games at 720p with no choice to improve the experience.
Thank god for MS, they get it and give you the consumer ultimate control over the gaming experience with unrivaled BC support too.

Re: Scorpio / Xbox One X
Exciting times for console-only gamers with a 4k TV they haven't really been doing anything with until now, but who really, REALLY love Halo
I do like Microsoft's overall vision though: backwards compatibility, Windows 10 across all devices etc. I'm fully on-board with that vision. They just really like stuffing things up and leaving the catch-up way too late (following up the amazing 360 with *that* Xbox One launch, therefore handing the market back to Sony on a silver platter, the disaster that has been Windows Mobile post-iPhone etc).
But yes, Halo

Re: Scorpio / Xbox One X
Very close to picking up a 4k TV so both my current PS4 pro and the Xbox One X should do their job very well. Still have Horizon Dawn sitting there wrapped for the 4k goodness. Was after one of Samsungs last year LCDs which are still better than this years current crop, but are no longer around. Seems Sonys LCDs are the best around this year and Samsung dropped the ball. Probably going with the Sony 900e 65 incher.

It is a FACT that you will save HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS if you purchase the CHEAPER YET SUPERIOR PC versions of the likes of Destiny 2, Assassin's Creed: Origins, Metro: Exodus, etc..etc..vs the MORE EXPENSIVE YET INFERIOR versions of such games on Xbox One X.
Furthermore you are saving HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS in not having to pay for an XBL membership.
$649 (Xbox One X's retail price) + HUNDREDS saved in software purchases + HUNDREDS saved in not having to pay for an XBL membership = MORE THAN ENOUGH FOR SUPERIOR MASTER RACE GAMING VS INFERIOR XBOX ONE X GAMING!!!

Re: Scorpio / Xbox One X
And how many games would a PC gamer purchase from the Windows Store spanning say half a decade?...2 games? 3 games? maybe 4 games?
Look...I genuinely have no problem with any of you choosing to purchase an Xbox One X. I would just appreciate your acknowledgment that you are mentally ill.
You are purposefully choosing to spend MORE MONEY to play the INFERIOR version of EVERY MUST HAVE XBOX ONE X GAME, instead of spending LESS MONEY to play the SUPERIOR version of EVERY MUST HAVE XBOX ONE X GAME.
The lack of COMMON SENSE combined with what is a crystal clear demonstration of MENTAL ILLNESS requires each and every one of you choosing to purchase an Xbox One X - to run to a psychiatrist's office ASAP!!!
At this point...everyone (and I genuinely think even Microsoft) know that Xbox One X is going to be a CATASTROPHIC FLOP, but i'm sure it's nice for Microsoft to see that whilst hardcore gamers have deserted the XBOX brand for instead PS4 and PC...Microsoft still have MENTALLY ILL gamers wrapped around their finger for them to laugh at and financially exploit.

Re: Scorpio / Xbox One X
WOW......Xbox live/PSN = 60 bucks or cheaper a year which gives access to hundreds of Dollars worth of games a year.....yep must be mentally ill to sign up for that.
Compare that to Nintendo's still coming service which enables you to play old roms
The irony of the Ranchers most mentally unstable person by FACT, calling people mentally ill for simply buying a console

Is Jasper unaware of how much it costs for a 4K PC setup?
Tip: Much more than $649, which could just be spent on the GPU alone.

Re: Scorpio / Xbox One X
One developer from that Eurogamer article likened the xerox to a GTX 1070 with 16 GB RAM. The graphics card alone costs more than the console. Then there's the rest that makes up a PC...

Best post of the thread.
But yes if XBONEX is basically a 1070 with 16GB of RAM, that's really fucken good especially for a console.

Re: Scorpio / Xbox One X
If people could be fucked with a PC, what's the point of any console?
Unless of course you have time to play every bloody game.

Re: Scorpio / Xbox One X
No point really. I'm guessing Sony and MS see this as well and bet iterative upgrades are the way of the future as console gamers stick to the belief it's cheaper to buy a box, expensive digital downloads/physical copies and pay for online access. Console gaming reached its peak with the last generation.
That said, if I were in the market for another console it would probably be the XBONEX, at least until a Metroid game turns up on the Switch.

Games you can't get on PC, obviously. PS4 is worth it if you have a PC, and the Switch will be eventually too.Madmya wrote:If people could be fucked with a PC, what's the point of any console?

XBONEX not so much, but if you don't have a PC it looks to be fantastic.

Console games I can trade in old games, on PC I'm stuck with no resale. Steam sales aren't what they used to be.
Xbox now has a Netflix rental service with hundreds of games to play, even better value.
But I'm sure if I use more CAPS in my response you'd get the point.

Re: Scorpio / Xbox One X
The Xbox One boils down to Halo, Forza, Gears of War and inferior versions of all multiplatform games. And that's just vs the PS4.To the Negative Nancies:
What should Microsoft do?
I guess making the World's Most Powerful Console (tm) helps, and I hope it means the Xbox One X ends up with the best multiplatform games (which is pretty much what happened last gen) because that will hopefully translate to more competition, but Microsoft needs to get exclusives people care about. A compelling reason for your average person to pick up a One S or One X over a PS4 or PS4 Pro when by this stage most of their friends will have backed Sony. And I can't see them making up the difference this gen (if generations even exist anymore!). I thought we were past the age of exclusives (outside of Nintendo), but the gap between Sony and Microsoft is stark and, well, *points at sales*
The things Microsoft do well are either things no one cares about or they somehow manage to stuff up.

Re: Scorpio / Xbox One X
So, again, what should Microsoft do? You didn't say anything then except comment on what is already known.
Agreed. I'd imagine this is also the hardest problem to solve. Microsoft's best shot is to have the most powerful console. Having an unpopular and underpowered console is by no means going to improve their situation.Jasper wrote:How about start with some Xbox One EXCLUSIVE games!
